We have a site that utilises htc files to present tabbed tables in a Domino database viewed by a browser.This works correctly in 2000 and IE but recently a client using the application has upgraded to XP Service Pack 2 and it no longer works.
HTC files not working under SP2 is a know issue but the supposed fix is to ensure that htc files are referenced as MIME type. I can find no information on how to do this in a Domino environment as it is usually applied via a web server as opposed to referencing it as code.
I have seen a few sites giving examples of htc files in domino, but none of them worked when I tried to open them on a machine using XP SP2.
If you’re coding directly into a page, or attaching the HTC file as a file resource you will need to set the mime type (under properties) to text/x-component or they won’t work.
The only option I’ve found so far that avoids this is to attach the HTC file to a page as a file attachment.
I guess you know where to find me for further info.
